초록
Hemangioblastomas are angioblastic tumors of the central nervous system. Cerebellarhemangioblastomas are traditionally classified into two morphologic types-cystic andsolid. Cystic hemangioblastomas are associated with peritumoral edema, but solidhemangioblastomas are not. We report a case of solid cerebellar hemangioblastomawith massive peritumoral edema. An 83-year-old female visited our hospital dueto a sudden headache. Five years ago, she had been admitted to our hospital withsimilar headache and diagnosed with cerebellar hemangioblastoma. Follow-up brainMRI 5 years later showed an increased size of a homogeneous enhancing mass withaggravated peritumoral edema in the left lower cerebellar hemisphere. Cerebralangiography showed a highly vascularized mass in the cerebellum, which wascompatible with a solid-type hemangioblastoma.
Abstract
Hemangioblastomas are angioblastic tumors of the central nervous system. Cerebellarhemangioblastomas are traditionally classified into two morphologic types-cystic andsolid. Cystic hemangioblastomas are associated with peritumoral edema, but solidhemangioblastomas are not. We report a case of solid cerebellar hemangioblastomawith massive peritumoral edema. An 83-year-old female visited our hospital dueto a sudden headache. Five years ago, she had been admitted to our hospital withsimilar headache and diagnosed with cerebellar hemangioblastoma. Follow-up brainMRI 5 years later showed an increased size of a homogeneous enhancing mass withaggravated peritumoral edema in the left lower cerebellar hemisphere. Cerebralangiography showed a highly vascularized mass in the cerebellum, which wascompatible with a solid-type hemangioblastoma.
